Should those undergoing cancer treatments or suffering from other serious diseases be allowed to use marijuana to ease their pain?
Advocates hope the Democratic-controlled legislature will make Wisconsin the 14th state in the country to legalize using the drug for medicinal purposes. They made their case Tuesday at a public hearing before the Senate and Assembly health committees.
If the democrat-sponsored bill is approved, a person could get a prescription from a doctor to receive marijuana. It could either be grown at home or obtained through a licensed nonprofit dispensary.
